P03-022 - Calprotec in chronic nonbacterial osteomyelitis

Introduction The cytoplasmic S100 proteins derived from cells of myeloid origin. Calprotectin (MRP8/14 protein complex) might be a biomarker either for autoinflammation and autoimmunopathy. Since autoinflammatory diseases might be a diagnostic challenge calprotectin may be helpful in the diagnosis of autoinflammatory diseases. Chronic nonbacterial osteomyelitis (CNO) is an autoinflammatory, non...

PW03-022 – Neutrophilic skin disease and inflammation

Introduction Robert Sweet first described a syndrome with a painful, erythematous nodular plaques, neutrophilic dermal infiltrates, fevers and peripheral neutrophilia. This cluster of syndromes became known as Sweet’s syndrome. There have been many published cases in children of neutrophilic dermatoses and fever which are labeled as Sweet’s syndrome. Recently, however, neutrophilic dermatoses h...

P02-022 - Atypical cryopirin associated periodic syndrome

Introduction Cryopyrin-associated periodic syndromes (CAPS) are dominantly inherited autoinflammatory diseases (AD) caused by NLRP3 mutations. They include different phenotypes (FCAS, Muckle-Wells syndrome, and CINCA/ NOMID) with different severity, usually as childhood onset fever and urticarial-like rash. In the last years, the clinical picture of CAPS is growing with other manifestations tha...

# 2008 - 022 If the Alliance Fits . . . : Innovation and Network Dynamics

Network formation is often said to be driven by social capital considerations. A typical pattern observed in the empirical data on strategic alliances is that of small world networks: dense subgroups of firms interconnected by (few) clique-spanning ties. The typical argument is that there is social capital value both to being embedded in a dense cluster, and to bridging disconnected clusters. I...
